Just added to the Hasbro display cases at Botcon 2010 are the following new toys, first viewed in the Hasbro Marketing Review panel just an hour ago! Hit the title or the photo at right to see all the freshness!
Update – Blurr Added. More shots of Terradive and Tomahawk too.
Rodr-Evil
I need that Blurr
Fort Max
I think they were leaning towards Drift and that company that did the Cybertronian version of him with that remark but I wasn't there so don't take that as gospel.
Thundershot
The comments about third party stuff makes me wonder if Hasbro DOES have a Springer in the works, and the comment was aimed toward Warbot…
Anguirus
No, no one knows.
None of the above: a glorious Voyager.
(Legends? Really? Did you see the pics?)

Highbrow
Does anyone know for sure now if they'll make a Springer redeco or remould of him? Btw, is he deluxe, scout or legends class? Answers anyone, please?

Wow, I want so many these. Almost all of them look awesome.

Hey Terradive also has the Trident as well which kind of ties him to the water theme.
Slap some blue on this guy and he could be a reformatted Depthcharge.
The P-38 looks fine to me, I will just pretend it is some kind of futuristic alternate WWII fighter.
These bots we are getting that are new characters are certainly well designed and detailed.
Tomahawk's missile launchers look as if his little hook is the same as the gray hooks on scouts weapons.
That Blurr must be mine, I was thinking it was going to be a straight repaint, and he would come with the same exact weapons just blue.
I am glad they showed him early so I will be able to wait.

Who the heck is the green plane? Me wants!!!
And Dirft got Blurr repaint? Ha! Nice. ^^

Blurr looks awesome
Bumblethumper
reminded me of Super Gobot Warpath.
… Gobots had terrific altmode variety. There's probably still a few that Hasbro hasn't done yet.
Kungfu Dinobot
Highbrow, Terradive and Tomahawk all look promising
wargy
When i first saw the pictures i really thought they were Gobot tributes. I remember Bolt vividly coz i had him when i was growing up. Even the new helicopter looks like this one –
STA: Gobots: MR-41 "Wrongway"
guard convoy
just from this neat bit of history i MUST have this toy
Infosaur
Wow! They FINALLY remade Gobot Bolt.
I still have him. I love that they actually balanced the propellers on him so that if you put him in a breeze they actually spin.
Sure he's got all the posability of a 84 minbot. (ie none)
But he's the only TF of a P-38 AFAIK that has ever been built.
Sure Highbrow is a more of an "inspired by" than a "pure real world based alt mode" but a lot of that goes right back to Bolt. (just wish they had come up with some inspired way to make the cockpit canopy the chest.)
Paxtin
Huh. Well that's actually kind of cooler.
Foster
One of the designers' father-in-law flew this plane in WWII and P+10 was his nickname. His real name was a ten-letter name nobody could pronounce, Polish or something, and started with P. Everyone just called him "P-plus-ten." That's what we were told it comes from.
Paxtin
Niiiiice. lol I hope that's intentional.
David Hingtgen
I'm in the category of thinking "they just ruined what would have otherwise been an awesome P-38 toy". It's like a steam-punk P-38. Breakaway is still a license-avoiding F-35, but looks 10x better.
I'd have bought a leader-class P-38 with that transformation, but not this nightmarish P-38-wannabe.
tackertackle
First non-recolor gobot?
Fort Max
This just in, brand new mould! Check out Sol Fury's live feed on the frontpage.
